[Unnecessary rude comment removed] Follow the rules or leave. I'm so sick of your crazy posts. No wonder they make memes about you.

Nice three paragraphs that have nothing to do with the wild ass assertions you've made on here.

Got it, Russia is attacking them because they want to ensure freedom of the press, makes total sense. As far as the political parties, they are pro-Russia political parties during the time they are at war with Russia. It kind of makes sense doesn't it?

Ok. Got it.

And now you're getting a taste of why he was banned on other forums...

Whoah, hey. Uh uh, fellas.

Be nice to my guests. Don't let me see you guys saying stuff like that. That's very rude.

Be nice to my guests. Commit it to memory.

If you think there's a problem which needs attention, use the report-this-post function to let me know.

In this forum, I require that all posted news items be accompanied by a link to the source. No exceptions

Sorry Para, I blunted my comment a bit. Just getting tired of conspiracy theories with no links.

Do you have any reason to believe we aren't doing our own research rather than depending on the mainstream media? Other than that we keep finding the blatantly obvious facts that don't jibe with your slavish adherence to the Putin party line?

Or did you really expect that we'd all spend hours here trying to track down the bizarre and occasionally patently untrue things that you've posted in these threads?

This isn't going away, it's getting more embarrassing for the US every news cycle. America supports Nazis in Ukraine. You good with that?

Oh, I think we're pretty good here on catching the mainstream media embarrassing itself. You'd know that if you'd ever run a simple search or two here.

As for feeding a situation where nazis and neo-Commies on an imperialist tear kill each other? Yeah, I'm definitely good with that. I just wish they'd bag more of those Islamist extremist Chechens that even the Russians refer to as simply "Khadyrovites".

Be careful taking any of the mainstream media reports from Ukraine at face value, it's already been debunked that Zelensky was meeting dignitaries there when in fact he was in Warsaw Poland - in front of a green screen.

I'm more concerned with remarks on this page below yours.

If there's an issue, you guys know I will tend to it in no uncertain terms, but, until then, be cool and use the tools provided to you, to report any concerns.

And keep in mind, guys, that rules such as "all news items must be linked to their source" are not at this time written down anywhere in this forum. It is possible some members don't know these rules. Once informed, though, well, that's a different story.

disgusting the mental gymnastics some are going through to 'justify' Russia's behavior

there is no justification for the attack period.

Who here is trying to "justify" Russia's behavior? Lots of questions being asked about what is actually going on there as well as the West's response to it, but I see no members defending Putin.

And by the way, deleting posts you've made that I have commented on is not the way to go. People will look at this page and wonder what I am talking about.

Best to take your medicine and not make me look like a loon talking about non-existent things.

PARA, I quoted the same thing you did here in a response to Sig209's comments and it apparently got relegated to the moderation queue. Can you just delete his quote from my comment and allow my response. Sorry for not reading ahead before posting.

Admission From Zelenskyy Highlights How Biden Administration Wanted To Provoke Russia To Invade Ukraine

https://theconservativetreehou...a-to-invade-ukraine/

Hopefully by now everyone is well aware how the U.S. State Department has been manipulating the internal politics of Ukraine for well over a decade.

A recent statement, by current Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, puts the weeks leading up to the Russian invasion into greater clarity.



In an interview with CNN, Zelenskyy spoke about his prior communication with Joe Biden and NATO leadership. Within the interview Zelenskyy said (emphasis mine):

“I requested them personally to say directly that we are going to accept you into NATO in a year or two or five, just say it directly and clearly, or just say no,” Zelensky said. “And the response was very clear, you’re not going to be a NATO member, but publicly, the doors will remain open,” he said. {CITATION)

https://www.cnn.com/europe/liv...d9d3a141e63e606a62e4

So, privately NATO and the Biden administration were telling Zelenskyy Ukraine was never going to be in NATO, yet they told him they were going to publicly act like the possibility existed. There was no way for Ukraine to enter NATO, but they were going to pretend he could. Why would they do this?

No one said jack or issued warnings while Russia was massing troops at the Ukraine border.

Now, after Russia is "allowed" by the West to invade, we learn that our oil/energy supply is screwed because of the invasion and Two Scoops policies, and now we find out our food supply is about to get hammered.

You can't tell me that the CIA and others who study this shit didn't know this already, yet here we are. Nevermind what's happening to the Ukrainians, our Govt is letting it happen to us.

I guess it's no big deal as long as the Walmart shelves are relatively stocked and iPhones are available.

Komsomolskaya Pravda, the pro-Kremlin tabloid, says that according to Russian ministry of defense numbers, 9,861 Russian soldiers died in Ukraine and 16,153 were injured.

The Red Army lost 15,000 men during the Soviet war in Afghanistan. Over 10 years.

Interesting article. They do warn you ahead of time, though, that how you interpret what you see can depend on the assumptions and perspective you choose.

quote:

Again, a critical frame of reference is needed to answer that question (why Biden & Co would want to provoke Putin into invading Ukraine): never ascribe to incompetence that which can be explained by intent.

It's perfectly reasonable to assume this was a screw-up rather than an evil master plan. No one in Biden's bunch has yet impressed us with their competence, in fact the opposite is true: there have been some pretty impressive cluster fucks since Uncah Ho first squatted in the White House. Biden famously had contacts with the previous administration in Ukraine, but that bunch was swept out in 2019 and they don't necessarily know how to talk to Zelensky. At the same time, it's just as easy to imagine other reasons for doing what they did as it is for CT to imagine Biden or the crew around him is capable of brilliant or even daring plots.

- Biden is clumsy enough to have originally thought this a courtesy to Ukraine - "we'll tell you no now so you aren't on pins and needles, but we won't say so publicly in order to save Ukraine the embarrassment or the appearance of being abandoned in the face of a threat." Mentioning it to China for deniable transmission to Putin would have seemed a relatively simple way to tell Putin that the US accepted that there was no prospect of getting Ukraine into NATO and thus calming Putin down.

- Biden is also clumsy enough to think that this was a way of extending a bit more protection to Ukraine - "Ukraine isn't in NATO, but it might as well be, so Russia is on notice that the US is committed to Ukrainian sovereignty". And, yes, Biden & Co are dumb enough to not realize that Putin might see this as a promise to sweep aside legalities and objections in order to get Ukraine into NATO just as Putin himself would cheerfully ignore legalities in order to get what he wanted.

Remember the food shortage we have been discussing in the not too distant past? And rampant inflation? I can’t help but think this is all intentional at the global level.

https://www.foxbusiness.com/li...russia-food-high.amp

As war continues to ravage Ukraine, Americans, particularly those who live paycheck to paycheck, are beginning to feel the financial squeeze on their food prices from the conflict half a world away.

It began with a rapid rise in gas prices. Now, with Russian oil banned in the United States and energy scarcity heightened globally, experts say shoppers can expect their grocery bills to rise in coming months – especially if Ukraine misses its wheat planting season.

"It comes an absolutely horrible time for American consumers because we're looking every day at inflation almost reaching 10%," Dan Varroney, a supply chain expert and founder of Potomac Core, told FOX Business. "Last month's figures were close to 8%. And that means that consumers, including those that are living paycheck to paycheck, are going to pay more for food."



More at the link above.

Biden and his crew are incapable of thoughtfulness or precision in anything they do other than ferret out an election. They are unable to craft a workable solution from information at hand because they don't look and listen. Focused on issues that are of interest to vertical minorities and not the overall prosperity of most Americans. They are timid, risk averse, and governed by their "feels" in the moment, and Biden's execution is invariably too little, too late, and ham fisted or just plain wrong. We are burdened with poor leadership and the world sees it. No matter what the outcome in Ukraine, the U.S. will share the blame for a perceived failure to dissuade Russia from the invasion. If NATO gets involved, we are in up to our ears, because NATO forces are ultimately commanded by an American General. It is a quandary and we do not have leadership at the top who is capable of solving it. As Secretary Gates once said of Biden, he is invariably wrong about international issues. He is consistent. We should not be in the shooting war in Ukraine, but America is being diminished by our failure to lead. I am embarrassed-something has to change. The mid-term elections are our first opportunity to stop these delusional idiots.

Precisely backwards.

Lazy people, or people with an unsupportable agenda, don't provide sources. If you cannot or will not supply supporting evidence for your assertions: They're merely your assertions. Or opinions. And you know what they say about the latter

Zelensky refuses to bargain over Nazi's. He's willing to make other concessions, but de-Nazification is off the table.

https://www.news.com.au/world/...10892171d16fef20f672

Remember carefully, a month ago there were no Nazi's in the Ukraine. All the media discounted it as a wild assertion. Now it's not even in question, and Ukraine doesn't want to budge on losing them.

“There can't be any ‘de-Nazification’ in the agreement. When a country that is treading in the footsteps of the Nazis is accusing us of being Nazis, we can’t accept that.”

Since when is Russia treading in the footsteps of the Nazi's?
